Bloggers Challenge-Sketch

Our Challenge Mom Lisa gave us a sketch challenge this week.
I am still making Christmas cards, and found an adorable digi by Heather Ellis –well let me re-phrase that- Heather Ellis has an Etsy store full of adorable digi images, and this is one of them…..
and here is a close-up of the shimmer:

She is colored with Copics and I added Flower Soft and glitter to her trim. The shimmer in the background is a TJ technique called Ice Crystals- I added a little tinge of Soft Sky to the technique. The DSP is Mind’s Eye and I had to add some tags that are a Digital Freebie on my Stampin Friend Juliet’s Blog.

I also wanted to share –what my husband does for entertainment…LOL he is fascinated by squirrels….

The squirrels were eating a hole in the side of a pumpkin on our porch- before the freeze of course- so he carved a hole in the bottom of the pumpkin and the top of the next one. Now, they are frozen together- and the squirrels climb in the pumpkin and crawl down to get seeds and seed corn my husband adds when the pumpkin seeds are gone. The squirrels are….well fed…….

One more thing- there is a new blog that is posting the daily challenges and listing what the challenges are- check it out HERE at Handmade by Gem.

Super cute card. Love the image and the dp. - Fun picture of the squirrel. I've been feeding squirrels this year too. Had hubby build a feader for them. So much fun to watch them. I even have them taking peanuts from my hand.
